In case of not Individually emails I want to ask : If I enter more than an email Address seperated with ";" in any field of email addresses "To", "CC", or "BCC". So, some fields may be will exceeds 255 charcters.
is that will affect on sending process ? because the excel will truncated value field of email addresses which exceeds 255 chars! and many emails will lost!

Is your tool can handel with this Problem ?
Please advice

Hi, Adel Al Abby, I have made a test: in To field, enter dozens of emails which separated by ";" and the total characters are exceeds 255, finally, all of the recipients have recieved the email. I heartily recommend this tool for you.
